TIL, most Americans dont know Kamen Rider

The US got a horrible Saban conversion of Kamen Rider Black & Black RX

The more recent adaptation was from "Kamen Rider Ryuki" -> "Kamen Rider: Dragon Knight"

SMAA Enhanced (Subpixel Morphological Antialiasing) is the best Visual Fidelity to Performance Hit ratio.

I don't get why other studios keep pushing other methods of Anti-Aliasing.

Pfft not really but YOLO right

Especially after paying off all my debts

You've worked hard through med school.

Paid off your School Tuition Debts incredibly fast compared to your peers.

That's ALOT of hard work.

That put you in this great financial position.

I think you worked Plenty Hard for it, Harder then 99.9% of most students with huge tuition debt right out of college.

You deserve to enjoy the "Best of the Best" things in life.

You worked hard for it.

But hey, that's just my PoV, do you think my observations and analysis were wrong?

Agreed, TC. Its better to be safe than sorry. Even if it were to turn out masks werent protecting us very much, its an easy thing to do and the possibility that they are helping makes wearing them worth it imo.

Can you predict when you will sneeze?

IMO, not really, nobody can.

Since you can't predict it, it's best that we all wear masks, for all of our sakes.

Help me, help you.

If we all wear masks like Japan and Taiwan did, we'd be over and done with this COVID-19 Quarantine.

But because there are selfish arses out there who refuse to wear them, it's extended the time that we all need to Quarantine.

Nvme pricing is bonkers

512 GB $80-$120
1 TB: $150ish
2 TB: $300-$400 (for good ones at least)
4 TB: $800+

NAND Flash Memory ain't cheap

https://www.dramexchange.com/
3D TLC 256Gb ~= $3.143 per unit
256 Gb = 32 GB costs $3.143

512 GB ~= $50.288 for the NAND Flash alone
this doesn't factor in the costs for:
1) the Flash Controller
2) the PCB manufacture
3) the Warranty
4) the R&D slow amortization over many unit sales
5) the Profit Margin for the manufacturer
6) the Profit Margin for the Seller
7) the QC check along with accounting for dud units
8) the Packaging, Shipping, Distribution
9) the Marketing Costs
10) etc.

If you panicked, and didn't have a life preserver, you could've accidentally drowned because you weren't focused and thought about floating.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Piru#Drownings

In August 1994, 27-year-old Jesus Danilo Carranza from North Hollywood drowned while on an outing with his family despite wearing a life jacket.[12]

In July 1997, Liborio Dominguez from Long Beach drowned while trying to rescue his daughter. The young girl was saved, but Dominguez's body was not discovered until several days later.[12]

In September 1997, 22-year-old Isidro Castillo from Newhall encountered problems while swimming and called for his girlfriend to throw him a buoy. The woman was unable to get the flotation device to him. His body was found a day later.[12]

In September 1997, rescue workers recovered the body of 30-year-old Port Hueneme resident Ulises Anthony Mendoza, who was last seen struggling days earlier while swimming with family members near their boat.[12]

In 1997, park officials speculated that wind gusts and deep columns of chilly water on the lake, which is up to 160 ft deep depending on the time of year, can overtake swimmers quickly.[12]

In February 1998, the body of Lake Piru employee Arthur Raymond Caladara was found drowned near the dock.[12]

In June 1998, the body of 30-year-old Vy Xuan Dang from Garden Grove, who disappeared while swimming with his family during the Memorial Day weekend, was found by a park ranger.

In September 2000, 25-year-old Van Nuys resident Edie Cruz, swam the short distance to his stalled radio-controlled model boat, and drowned only 10 feet from shore. Douglas West, Lake Piru's parks and recreation services manager, said there had been about a dozen drownings during his 23 years at the lake. Most victims are inexperienced swimmers who are not wearing life jackets and who overestimate their own abilities or swim in prohibited areas.[12]

Naftoli Smolyanksy died in a boating accident in August 2008. Smolyansky had taken his 9-year-old son and 5 and 7-year-old daughters out on the lake Monday afternoon when his youngest daughter fell off the boat. He jumped into the water to save her, and managed to get her back on the boat as it drifted away. Smolyanksy was unable to swim to the boat and did not resurface.[13]

In May 2010, 36-year-old Roberto Barrios was celebrating his graduation from nursing school with a group of about two dozen people, when he went for a swim off of their pontoon boat. He had been swimming for about five minutes when the wind started pushing the boat away from him and two friends. People on a nearby boat rescued the two other people, but those on the pontoon boat couldn't get close enough to rescue Barrios before he disappeared under water. A few days later Ventura County Sheriff's dive team found Barrios at the bottom of the lake. [14]

On July 8, 2020, actress Naya Rivera disappeared while swimming with her son. A search of the lake began that day, resuming on July 9 after being temporarily called off due to nightfall. As of July 9, the Ventura County Sherrifs Department confirmed that the search has been shifted from an active search to a recovery mission and Rivera is presumed dead.[15][16][17][18]

This lake has quite the body count.

First, the most important thing is to make sure he never has an opportunity to create more victims. This man cannot be rehabilitated, he must be destroyed. Secondly, do you have any idea how traumatic it would be for a child to torture someone? Or even be in the same room as their abuser? When you say shit like this, it's obvious that you are not really thinking of the victims' best interests.

They can always have a proxy do it for them. There are no shortage of volunteers.

Total expense 1 bullet.

It's over too quickly, having all of his victims come up and torture him repeatedly until he dies, then the doctors can revive him for them to repeat the torturing again. Keep repeating until he's permanently dead.

It'll give his victims some form of "Closure".

Far more satisfying to the victims.

@Bio1590

It is extremely difficult if not outright impossible to drown yourself. It is also an extremely painful and (relatively) slow way to die that no one is going to look at and say "Yep that's how I'm gonna do it".

I concur, but what if she drowned by accident?

Hypothetically, she goes for a swim with her kid without "Stretching Properly" before hand.

She pulls a muscle mid swim, and because she's never pulled a muscle while in a very deep lake, she panics, and accidentally drowns?

Doesn't that sound plausible?

If they all really cared we'd go back to something that's jewel case-sized (especially now that printed manuals are a thing of the past) but apparently there's some "perceived value" shit that says "don't do it".

That would still be too thick.

Standard Jewel Cases = 10 mm thick
CD Singles Slim Cases = 7 mm thick
Slim-Line Cases = 5 mm thick

We can go "Thinner".

The only advantage of BluRay cases are that they're made of more durable plastic than old fashion Jewel Cases.

Those cases SUCK in terms of durability.

Should just keep pushing the frame rate until the GPU is 100% imo

HL2 came out in Nov 2004. The game is almost 16 years old.

You're running into Game System Rendering Engine limits. HL2 isn't complex enough to push the modern GPU to that limit.

That's why Ultra-wide would give you more benefits along with higher refresh rates.

Imagine gaming at 21:9 instead of 16:9 aspect ratio with higher VRR (Variable Refresh Rates)

Imagine gaming at 24:9 instead of 16:9 aspect ratio with higher VRR (Variable Refresh Rates)

That's the future of gaming.

The Ultra-wide "Aspect Ratio" is closer to your natural human eyes FoV (Field of View)

24:9 is closer to that "Aspect Ratio" then either 21:9, or 16:9.
